  • Thanks everyone! I'm going to make sure I'm stretching more before and after and see if I can get some relief. The idea of wearing totally flat shoes sounds almost counterproductive but when I think about it, I NEVER have this problem in my ballet flats at work or in my flat sandals, seems only to happen when I wear…
  • @Cherimoose The pain is on the outside it's just weird I don't get it any time other than when I'm walking, I've never gotten it walking for instance at the mall or in my work shoes, just when i'm getting my workout in.
  • Thanks @dewd2 I do try to stretch and I've changed up my shoes at least 3 or 4 times, I'm wondering if I need to go to one of those specialty stores to get fitted with the right shoe
  • I've been a bit MIA for the last couple of days, not fully sticking to the plan as of right now, but getting back to doing all of the workouts and following the meal plan 75% of the time so at least I haven't fully fallen off the bandwagon. My friend is going through a hard time with her hubby so we went out on Thursday…
  • @germany03 I am finishing up a bag of Shakeology that my cousin gave me for free, my next shake/meal replacement is going to be Garden of Life Raw Meal, it's ultra healthy, kinda gritty tasting but not really so bad.
  • @dkwi04 I feel ya sister! I can honestly say i didn't stick to the full 21 days, there is just too much going on lately. (traveling, vacations, celebrations etc) Aside from that, I can at least take pride in knowing that I continually work out and am loosely sticking to the eating plan. I am working out every morning…
  • @SatiaRenee I tried the shakeology for a week before I started the 21dayfix and haven't had any issues with it. I've always had some sort of digestive issues that I always attributed to my diet....I figured cleaning up my diet would help and the last 2 weeks went really well but I'm such a mess today!! A G.I is totally in…
  • No broccoli at all! Just the leafy greens that I've been eating FOREVER, it's just so strange!
  • I'm still having trouble with surrenders. My knees are bad and I don't know if its the fact that my thighs aren't strong enough yet but I find myself just dropping to my knee and hard...I sometimes use my hands in front of me to really soften the blow, but I think dropping to my knee the way I've been is actually doing…
  • @SatiaRenee thanks for all of the suggestions! I've been toying with the idea of T25 because the big selling point for me is the 25 minutes. I've noticed that I can absolutely do a half hour workout before work without messing up my schedule too much but I think if I go beyond the 30 minutes I'm going to have to wake up…
  • This is supposed to be my 3rd week of my 1st round, I feel like I chose a bad time to start as I haven't been able to fully commit due to commitments on the weekends and being out of town. I'll be out of town AGAIN this weekend so I'm going to miss at least 2 workouts. Regardless I'm going to stop looking at this as a 21…
  • Oy vey! Went on a mini vacation with my fiance's family this weekend so sticking to the meal plan was hard if not impossible and forget working out. However, with a air temp of 95 and a heat index of 115 I sweated like crazy and got over 10 miles of walking in on Saturday and Sunday so I don't think I did too bad. I am so…
  • @jpkrueger Thank you so much for the kind words and helpful hints! I have a bag of Shakeology my cousin gave me that I'm using as my breakfast. Once the bag is gone I'm going to try Raw Meal as my breakfast, I guess that's another question I have, does anyone know what Raw Meal would fall under? I'm assuming its going to…
  • @jpkrueger I mostly get to the end of the day and realize I haven't eaten them all. Don't get me wrong I'm hungry throughout the day but it seems like I just get in this zone of not wanting to overeat, even though I know I'm allotted so many containers. I'm having trouble meeting the yellow containers (I think this stems…
  • Pilates done. Made the mistake of weighing myself this morning...yea, another pound UP. WTF? But lets just hope it's muscles. Anywho, I'm having trouble eating all of my containers each day, and I think I'm just not eating enough, I've been moody and mean and I figure it has to do with not eating enough. How do you get all…
  • Lower Body Fix done. I hopped on the scale this morning and despite my weight still being down from what I started at, I am still feeling discouraged. I know I wasn't rigid this past weekend as I had family events both Saturday and Sunday I did gain 3 pounds back over the weekend, I've dropped 2 of those but now we are…
  • Question- Does anyone know if the Oikos Greek Yogurt Dips approved on the 21 Day Fix? I'm looking for something new to add into the mix and I LOVE dipping veggies. If it is..do you think it's a red?
  • Upper body fix done. Had a meltdown last night about my weight, and I seriously only faltered a bit this weekend, it could've been worse. Need to keep motivated and stay positive. I know I can do this.
  • Well this weekend wasn't stellar for me... it's tough to adhere to the diet when you're hosting 30+ people in your house and the only things to eat are hot dogs and all the fixings of a cookout... oh and the pizza that happened this weekend too lol I reluctantly weighed myself this morning and it looks like I gained 2…
  • Got my Dirty 30 in! Phew! That was rouuuuugh! But it's over now and I'm ready to take on the day! Have a super Saturday everybody!
  • I picked up Flat Outs at Wegmans...BUUUT that's more of a North-Eastern store, not sure where you're located. Anywho, what is everyone's thoughts on PB2? I personally really enjoy it, mostly because I'm mixing peanut butter into other things and not spreading it....is it approved?
  • Does anyone else think it's cruel to have the Cardio fix on a Friday???? phew! That was tough, I modified pretty much all of it, BUT I got through it! Thank goodness! The biggest challenge on this plan is going to be my weekends. My weekends are normally reserved for date nights with my fiance and often that includes beer…
  • @SatiaRenee Thanks for the suggestion! After 3 days of that "creamy herb dressing" I gave up. I talked myself into liking it the first day but man oh man was it bad today. I see they have other dressing recipes but I don't have a lot of time to dedicate to make dressings, nor the resources.
  • Not sure what board to post this on... BUT I was wondering if anyone knows of a salad dressing that is 21 day fix approved that I don't have to actually make.
  • @dkwi04 Way to go! That's great news! Did my pilates fix today, wasn't expecting to work as hard as I did lol Realizing I'm really not a fan of pilates but maybe that will change the stronger I get. Stoked that week 1 is almost over, really proud of the progress I'm making! The weekend will be the challenge, the weekends…
  • Looks like a cheat meal but totally not! 1 yellow, 1.25 green, .5 purple, 1.5 red FULL OF AWESOME NOMS
  • Maryland! just moved back in January after a 2 year stint in Buffalo. I miss Buffalo but MD has its perks!
  • YES! I completed the Lower Body Fix this morning. WOOHOO I was able to complete most, if not all, the exercises despite not being able to lower myself onto the toilet the last few days. HA! I think my legs are actually starting to feel better today which is amazing! I cheated and weighed myself this morning after I told…
  • Hey all question, has anyone made the creamy herb dressing from the book? I did and it seemed to make a lot! Do you guys know how long it will keep in the fridge?
  • Thanks everyone! Sometimes we all need a little push, and really I need a big push! Nothing has worked for me in the past so I'm very discouraged and jaded when it comes to working out and dieting but for once I'm finally SO sore, so I'm pretty sure somethings working! haha! Hey if you all want, please add me as a friend!…
